We recently installed a PH150 complete with a winch onto a very unusual vehicle! 🔧

While the installation was completely bespoke, our team used their deep engineering knowledge to achieve a finish we are all very proud of.

The original enquiry for this unique crane and vehicle setup was for a very specific application, and we were more than happy to help out a long-standing customer.

This project highlights exactly what our team of employee-owners can achieve. No matter how unusual or complex your enquiry might seem, we are always willing to take a look and design a custom solution that works! 🇬🇧

Investing in the next generation of engineers takes time, planning, and dedicated mentorship ⚙️💡

This year, we were thrilled to host eight work experience students, welcoming Year 12 A-Level students in February and Year 10 GCSE students in July. With requests flooding in as early as October, our placements fill up fast. We do everything we can to give every student a hands-on, varied look into the real world of engineering, business, and manufacturing.

We recently welcomed Maisy, Dylan, and Jacob from Heritage High School in Clowne for a week of real-world learning (pictured: learning the ropes at the CNC machine with George!).

👏 A massive thank you to our team members who step up from their day jobs to mentor, teach, and inspire these young minds. The future of engineering is looking very bright! ✨

Driving Nuclear Innovation Through Supply Chain Collaboration

In the highly regulated nuclear sector, ‘collaboration' isn't just a buzzword, it's the key to reducing risk, shortening lead times, and delivering reliable engineering outcomes.

We recently partnered with RED Engineering to support their engineering-led trials for a complex remote handling challenge. By deploying one of our Penny PH Cranes, RED were able to set up trial environments efficiently, de-risk their testing process, and gather actionable data for their final solution delivery.

At Penny Engineering, we strongly believe in UK-manufactured technology within nuclear applications. It lowers deployment costs, reduces project lead times, and gives engineering teams the confidence they need before going trackside or into active environments.

A fantastic example of two UK engineering companies collaborating to advance nuclear de-risking!

Even as our business has grown, keeping our service personal is at the very heart of what we do.

We're proud of this feedback from a prestigious university we've been working with for over 10 years.

Because we're 100% employee-owned, you aren't just another job to us, you're dealing directly with the owners of the business every step of the way! 🤝

🟠 CASE STUDY - Nuclear Restoration Services 🟠

When Nuclear Restoration Services (NRS) required a complete, end-to-end material handling solution, our specialist division, Penny Nuclear, were appointed.

The project required the design and installation of two bespoke gantry cranes for a new facility – each built to meet the safety and space constraints of a complex nuclear environment.

Penny Nuclear provided a complete service: from design and manufacture through to installation, commissioning, and ongoing maintenance.

You can read more about the project here 👇

CASE STUDY: We recently partnered with Angloco, a vehicle body-builder in Malvern, who specialise in firefighting and rescue vehicles.

They tasked us with providing 5 LoadLifts to load heavy outboard motors into MAN TGE panel vans, which they were converting into rapid-response flood rescue vehicles.

🟠 Challenge: The outboard motor originally arrived with its own factory trolley. However, it was too high to fit inside the van.

🟠 Our Solution: Our design team engineered a brand-new, bespoke trolley tailored perfectly to the outboard motor. This allowed the motor to be securely strapped directly to the LoadLift for rapid, safe trackside unloading during time-critical emergency deployments.

The team at Angloco loved the trolleys so much that they've already returned to Penny to help with their next project!

We recently completed a lovely installation of a CellarLift in a newly refurbished cellar over in Chiswick, London! 🇬🇧🦾

For years, the manager had to manually drop 22-gallon barrels onto a drop mat - risking damage to the premises, creating a significant safety hazard and even (heaven forbid!) damage to the precious b**r. Now? The process is safe, easy, and incredibly quick.

This custom lift features specialised forks to safely transport heavy barrels in and out of the cellar, plus a removable case tray to easily handle boxes and cases of stock. Needless to say, the manager was absolutely delighted with the upgrade! 🎉📦

Take a look at our Cellar Lift range:
